initdb carrying on forever/problems with Postgresql setup on Cygwin

Hi list, 

I have managed to install Cygwin version and Cygipc version 1.14-1 on my
Win XP Pro Box. Now, when I initialize the db using the command: "initdb
-W -D /cygdrive/d/apps/cygwin/usr/local/pgsql/data" this process goes on
forever. Believe me, I have been trying to fix this all day, with not
very much success :-(( I have already looked at similar postings on this
mailing list - but that hasn't solved the problem.  

I would appreciate any help/advice. 

Regards,
